About Flight Compensation Checker

Flight Compensation Checker is a free, instant tool that tells you whether you may be owed money after a flight delay, cancellation, denied boarding, or downgrade — and roughly how much. It covers six major passenger-rights frameworks: EU261, UK261, APPR (Canada), the Montreal Convention, ANAC 400/2022 (Brazil), and the Israel Aviation Services Law.

Why it exists

Most passengers don't know their rights. Airlines routinely cite vague "operational reasons" to deny valid claims, and the regulations — while genuinely powerful — are written in the language of lawyers and legislators, not travellers.

This tool was built to change that. You answer six plain-English questions. In under 60 seconds you get a clear verdict: eligible or not, which regulation applies, and what amount the law entitles you to — with the specific case law cited so you can push back confidently if the airline disputes it.

How it works

The eligibility engine runs entirely in your browser — your flight details are never sent to a server or stored anywhere. It evaluates your flight against each applicable regulation using the rules as written and as interpreted by the leading court decisions (including Sturgeon v. Condor, Wallentin-Hermann v. Alitalia, and Krüsemann v. TUIfly).

It is an educational estimate, not legal advice. Actual outcomes depend on airline cooperation and, in some cases, court proceedings.

Affiliate disclosure

We don't currently have any affiliate relationships and earn no commission. If that changes in future — for example, a referral arrangement with a no-win-no-fee claim service — we'll say so here, and it still won't influence the eligibility verdict: the engine applies the law as written regardless of any service you might choose.
